ABSTRACT

Introducción: La obesidad (OB), considerada como una de las enfermedades crónicas no trasmisibles, tiene como características fundamentales la de ser frecuente a nivel global, ser cada vez más creciente, afectar a países desarrollados y en vías de desarrollo, afectar a ambos sexos, y a todas las edades y grupos sociales. Objetivo: Identificar si el alto peso al nacer constituye un factor predictor (factor de riesgo) para la OB abdominal en niños de 7 a 11 años, y su relación con el sexo, la edad y la dieta. Método: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo con un diseño de tipo caso-control con los niños nacidos entre enero de 1992 y diciembre de 1995, con el fin de identificar de forma temprana factores de riesgo (aceleradores ateroscleróticos) como la OB abdominal en niños de 7 a 11 años, que tienen antecedentes de macrosomía o alto peso al nacer y su relación con el sexo, la edad y la dieta. Resultados: Observamos que en el grupo de estudio y en el grupo control el valor de cintura/estatura es normal, con un 60,80 y un 64,00%, respectivamente, estando alterado el 39,20% en el grupo de estudio y el 36,00% en el grupo de control, además de presentar una p = 0,6859, no siendo estadísticamente significativo, comportándose de igual manera en ambos grupos, ocurriendo lo mismo con el sexo y la edad. En cuanto a la dieta en el grupo de estudio (macrosómico), no existe asociación significativa entre el tipo de dieta y los valores de circunferencia cintura/estatura, con un χ2 = 0,2223 y una p = 0,6373 (no significativo). En el grupo control (con peso normal al nacer) encontramos que existe asociación estadística significativa entre el tipo de dieta y los valores de circunferencia cintura/estatura. Esto quiere decir que se puede afirmar con un 95% de confiabilidad que el tipo de dieta está asociado con los valores de cintura/estatura. Conclusiones: El alto peso al nacer no constituye un factor predictor (factor de riesgo) para la OB abdominal (aumento del índice cintura/estatura). El sexo y la edad es independiente para la OB abdominal (macrosómico y peso normal al nacer). La dieta en el alto peso al nacer no está relacionada con el índice cintura/estatura, no ocurriendo así con los nacidos con peso normal en iguales condiciones. Preocupante el marcado aumento de la OB abdominal (índice cintura/estatura) en niños entre 7 y 11 años en ambos grupos


Introduction: Obesity (OB), considered as one of the Non-Transmissible Chronic Diseases, has as its fundamental characteristics that of being prevalent at a global level, increasing in number, affecting developed and developing countries, affecting both genders, and all ages and social groups. Objective: To identify if high birth weight is a predictive factor (risk factor) for abdominal obesity in children 7 to 11 years old, and its relationship to gender, age and diet. Method: A case-control descriptive study was carried out with children born between January 1992 and December 1995, in order to identify early risk factors (atherosclerotic accelerators) such as abdominal obesity in children aged 7 to 11, and who have a history of macrosomia or high birth weight, as well as their relationship with gender, age and diet. Results: It was observed that the waist/height value was normal in 60.8% of the study group and in 64.00% in the control group. The difference between groups, gender, and age was not significant (P = .6859). As regards the diet in the study group (macrosomic), there was no significant association between the type of diet and waist circumference/height values, with an χ2 = 0.223 and P = .6373 (not significant). In the control group (with normal weight at birth), it was found that there is a significant statistical association between the type of diet and waist circumference/height values. This means that it can be stated, with 95% reliability, that the type of diet is associated with waist/height values. Conclusions: High birth weight is not a predictive factor (risk factor) for abdominal obesity (increased waist/height index). Gender and age are independent for abdominal obesity (macrosomic and normal weight at birth). The diet in high birth weight children is not related to the index waist-height index, which is not the case in those born with normal weight under the same conditions. The marked increase in abdominal obesity (Waist/height index) in children between 7 and 11 years old in both groups is worrying

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCCIÓN: la diabetes mellitus es una enfermedad causada por un desorden nutricional que se caracteriza por eliminación excesiva de orina, que frecuente tiene azúcar. La diabetes también puede producir adelgazamiento, sed intensa y otros trastornos. Es una enfermedad que se asocia a un riesgo incrementado de enfermedad coronaria y que en la actualidad ha adquirido el rango de pandemia. OBJETIVO: identificar asociación del alto peso al nacer con la diabetes mellitus en niños de 7 a 11 años. MÉTODOS: se realizó un estudio descriptivo con un diseño de tipo caso-control con los niños nacidos entre enero de 1992 y diciembre de 1995, con el fin de identificar de forma temprana, asociación de la diabetes con el alto peso al nacer en niños de 7 a 11 años. RESULTADOS: se estudiaron los escolares entre 7 y 11 años que se encontraban en el curso de la enseñanza primaria. La población estudiada estuvo representada por 140 y el grupo control por 100. CONCLUSIONES: el alto peso al nacer no constituyó por si solo un factor predictor para la diabetes mellitus.


INTRODUCTION: Diabetes mellitus is a condition caused by a nutrition disorder characterized by excessive discharge of urine, which often contains sugar. Diabetes may also cause weight loss, intense thirst and other disorders. The condition, which is associated with increased risk for coronary heart disease, has currently achieved the rank of pandemic. OBJECTIVE: Identify the association between high birth weight and diabetes mellitus in 7- to 11-year-old children. METHODS: A descriptive case-control study was conducted with children born from January 1992 to December 1995, aimed at early identification of the association between diabetes and birth weight in 7- to 11-year-old children. RESULTS: The children studied were 7- to 11-year-olds attending elementary education. The study population consisted of 140 children, and the control group of 100. CONCLUSIONS: High birth weight of itself was not a predictor of diabetes mellitus.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO. identificar de forma precoz señales ateroscleróticas tempranas (SAT) en escolares que tienen antecedentes de macrosomía o alto peso al nacer. MÉTODOS. se realizó un estudio descriptivo con un diseño de tipo caso-control con los niños nacidos en el Hospital Ginecobstétrico "Ramón González Coro". Para la recolección de datos se utilizaron fuentes primarias y secundarias. Se confeccionó una historia clínica con los datos personales, antecedentes patológicos personales y familiares, aspectos dietéticos y datos relacionados con el nacimiento. Se realizó un examen físico minucioso que incluyó un estudio antropométrico y la medición de la tensión arterial. Se indicaron estudios humorales como glucemia, colesterol, ésteres del colesterol y triglicéridos. RESULTADOS. en el grupo de estudio hubo un 56,43 % de pacientes sin SAT y un 43,57 % con SAT. En el grupo control, el 59,00 % de los pacientes no tenían SAT y un 41,00 % sí los tenían. CONCLUSIONES. el alto peso al nacer no constituye un predictor para las señales ateroscleróticas tempranas, aunque los autores desconocemos la existencia de reportes anteriores en la edad escolar y en los existentes no se señala que los pacientes fueran macrosómicos.


INTRODUCTION: in most cases atherosclerosis is a silent chronic condition whose presence is generally unknown by both the patient and their family. It often starts with a big atherosclerotic crisis (sudden death, acute myocardial infarction or cerebral hemorrhage). In recent decades it has been found to be the main cause of death, hospital morbidity, invalidity, disability and loss of quality of life in both developed and developing countries. OBJECTIVE: identify early atherosclerotic signals (EAS) among school-age children with a history of macrosomia or high birth weight. METHODS: a descriptive case-control study was conducted with children born at Ramón González Coro maternity hospital. Data were collected from both primary and secondary sources. A medical record was developed which included personal details, personal and family pathological antecedents, dietary information and birth-related data. A thorough physical examination was performed, including an anthropometric study and blood pressure measurements. Humoral studies such as glycemia, cholesterol, cholesterol esters and triglycerides were indicated. RESULTS: in the study group 43.57% of the patients had EAS and 56.43% did not. In the control group 41.00% of the patients had EAS and 59.00% did not. CONCLUSIONS: high birth weight is not a predictor of early atherosclerotic signals. The authors are not aware of any previous report about school age, and existing reports do not state whether the patients were macrosomic.

ABSTRACT

Introducción. la aterosclerosis constituye en la mayoría de los casos un evento silencioso y crónico que es generalmente desconocido por el paciente y su familia, y cuyo comienzo la mayoría de las veces es una gran crisis de aterosclerosis (muerte súbita, infarto agudo del miocardio, infarto o hemorragia cerebral). En las últimas décadas se ha visto que constituye, en los países desarrollados y en vías de desarrollo, la primera causa de muerte, de morbilidad en los ingresados hospitalarios, de invalidez e incapacidad y de pérdida en la calidad de vida. Objetivo. identificar de forma precoz señales ateroscleróticas tempranas (SAT) en escolares que tienen antecedentes de macrosomía o alto peso al nacer. Métodos. se realizó un estudio descriptivo con un diseño de tipo caso-control con los niños nacidos en el Hospital Ginecobstétrico Ramón González Coro. Para la recolección de datos se utilizaron fuentes primarias y secundarias. Se confeccionó una historia clínica con los datos personales, antecedentes patológicos personales y familiares, aspectos dietéticos y datos relacionados con el nacimiento.
